In my case to answer to Patrick, I see the warning message to "Update Flash Player" whenever I click on a Facebook attached video despite I already have the latest Flash Player plugin installed in FF56
Try to disable Flash Player in the firefox plugin settings - and I really mean to set it to "disabled" - "ask every time" won't work [1].
I know this sounds like a funny advise, so let me explain ;-)
Many sites automatically switch to HTML5 video when they detect Flash Player isn't available. This detection is done based on headers your browser sends.
I rarely view Facebook pages, but last time I did, I was able to play a video. I uninstalled Flash Player two years ago, so it obviously worked without Flash ;-)
Oh, and I didn't miss Flash Player in the last two years ;-) - most pages I usually visit all switched to HTML5 video, and in the very rare case I can't see a video, youtube-dl helps.

[1] Last time I tested, Firefox did still send out the header indicating that Flash Player is installed when it was set to "ask every time" mode. Note that this was two years ago, so while I never heard about a change in this area, I won't guarantee that the behaviour is still the same ;-)
Tested by following your directions and it didn't works: The page containing the video tells that I need to install Flash-Player :-( Cheers, -- Marco Calistri Linux version : openSUSE Tumbleweed 20171019 Kernel: 4.13.9-1.gabdc07c-default - Cinnamon 3.4.6 N�����r��y隊Z)z{.���r�+�맲��r��z�^�ˬz��N�(�֜��^� ޭ隊Z)z{.���r�+��0�����Ǩ�
